The path leads through two consecutive rock breakthroughs. But be careful, the headroom is very limited.

A few meters away from the Soonwaldsteig at the bridge over the Steinbach, an unslated tunnel leads into the mountain. After about 40 meters, a mining dome opens up, from which another tunnel leads off and where a small bench was improvised. A tombstone documents the lifetime of a Philipp Schmitt (1869-1951). About the history: The "Altlayenkaul" pit near Rudolfshaus below Bruschied dates back to the 17th century. According to entries in old church books, 13 miners died there in 1740 when a mine collapsed. There is a document from 1840 in which King Wilhelm IV of Prussia granted the mining rights to this pit to the predecessor of the Drescher family. The Drescher family acquired the mine in 1875. In 1953 the Katharinen shaft was rebuilt. In 1956, 2 foremen and 52 men were employed in this mine.

So my daughter was a bit disappointed with the "cave". Even as a child, it was difficult to crawl a few meters into the tunnel. But a flashlight helps with the Schinderhannes Cave adventure. In front of the cave there is a small stream and picnic tables that invite you to linger.

The cave can only be reached on step stones over the Hoxbach. And besides, only to explore on all fours and with the muddy ground, I preferred to do without it.

So we didn't want to get in on our knees, but at least we dared to walk on the stones across the stream and take a look inside. And we stopped here, beautiful with the sun shining through the trees

The only 13m long cave in the valley of the Kieselbach was probably used by the Schinderhannes as a hiding place for some time during his many raids in the Hunsrück. Read more: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schinderhannesh%C3%B6hle_(Pferdsfeld)

The show mine, uncovered and made accessible in 1975 by the Association for Fossil Friends. In 1988 it was structurally modified so that wheelchair users can easily visit the mine. The historic Herrenberg slate mine is an unusual attraction on the “Hunsrück Slate and Castle Road”. It impressively conveys to the visitor the work of the miner and opens up the world of fossils from ancient times. Mines and widenings inside the mountain lie one above the other like terraces. Fantastic quartz veins alternating with gray-blue slate rock create images of unusual rarity and structure - abstract art of nature. Shiny gold pyrites in the walls and stalactites that have formed on the ridges impress with their genuine beauty and naturalness. Hand-picked tunnels and quarries testify to medieval mining skills, old documents report digging in the 16th century, but there are reasonable signs pointing to slate mining from the Roman era. Fossils, those relics from unimaginably distant geological ages, indicate life around 350 million years ago. Many revealing fossil discoveries have been recovered to this day and are represented in well-known museums around the world. The Bundenbach Fossil Museum is right next door.

Caution, bow your head when you go through this rock tunnel. One of the many nice changes on this dreamlike dream loop.

The Schinderhannes was up to mischief here ... In front of the cave there are tables and benches to linger and rest. “The Schinderhanneshöhle is located in the Hunsrück, around one kilometer west of the former horse field and around two kilometers northeast of Seesbach in the Hoxbachtal (also called Gaulsbachtal). The cave got its name because it is said to have been the hideout of the robber Schinderhannes. The Schinderhanneshöhle is relatively small at 13 meters in length.
